- W2060530336 abstract "Hart's little fruit bat, Enchisthenes hartii, is uncommon and, although it has been the subject of recent molecular genetic studies, is little known biologically. Because chiropteran salivary glands vary interspecifically in ways that reflect evolutionary history and ecology, we examined the parotid gland in E. hartii to ascertain the extent to which it resembles homologous glands in species to which this bat presumably is related.The parotid glands were prepared for electron microscopic examination by conventional means.The parotid gland of E. hartii is structurally unique among all previously studied species of bats (> 230 species examined) and other mammals. In contrast to the same gland in other mammals, the parotid gland in E. hartii lacks secretory endpieces. In their place, there is a type of striated duct. Thus, in this species single secretory elements consist of (proceeding in the direction of salivary flow): striated duct--intercalated duct--and a conventionally located striated duct. The proximal ducts possess microvillus-lined intercellular canaliculi, whereas the walls of the distal ducts include occasional dark cells. Some small serous-like granules may be present in the intercalated duct cells.The function(s) and biological role of the unique parotid gland in E. hartii are unknown. Nevertheless, the presence of two sets of striated ducts provides two separate glandular components seemingly capable of electrolyte transport. This might be of adaptive significance in enabling this species to make use of tropical nutrient resources that otherwise would be unavailable. The uniqueness of its parotid glands lends support to the current hypothesis that E. hartii should be classified as a monotypic genus rather than as a species of Artibeus, whose members it resembles morphometrically." @default.
